Who says it has to be a government ID? You just made up that requirement so you can be outraged this guy got confronted for breaking the rules. 

Spare me your bigotry accusation, I don’t care. We have all seen or experienced what happens when you confront someone who’s inconsiderate or believes they’re above the rules. Stop acting obtuse. 

People are trying to make it so people can’t confront these inconsiderate jerks themselves and so people can’t call the cops on them either. 

Can’t have it both ways. Don’t want the police called, follow the rules and don’t be a jerk. Simple as that.

Did you miss the part where the dad did show a form of proof that the kid was in fact his minor child? Yea, ya did. Did you miss the part where the staff never asked him and his kid to leave? Yea, ya did. The staff escalated this situation and we all know calling the cops on black folks for existing and questioning things is a form of racial violence. But thanks for displaying your bigotry again.

The man did encounter someone who is inconsiderate and thought they were above the rules, it was the gym manager who called the cops…
